Steering Wheel painting?

[BP_Z28]

Is it possible to paint the steering wheel?


I will be working on the car this upcoming month or next and wanted to paint the steering wheel?

Or do I need to just buy a steering wheel cover?...I dont want to buy a new steering wheel..

[kammi10]

why paint it at all?

[BP_Z28]

because it wont go with my new interior that i am doing

[bobfist]

vinyl paint?

why not use vinylpaint?

Aftermarket steering wheel (means no airbag) or cover.

meh i'd rather keep my airbag

[motownZ]

it might be costly but instead of painting i would just take it to a uphosltery and get it wrapped and stictched the color you want. never seen it done before soo GET CUSTOM

I wouldnt own a air bad anyways...........so go aftermarket......or have it recovered..........vynal paint looks good for a short while then it peels and everything else.......my luck wiht it has left me with a bad taste for it

I painted my interior when I first got the car.and re-did some of it (parts I havnt done yet)..and nothing is chipped or scratched...

I would rather have it stitched up the way I want it, but wouldnt that be costly?

This is from an extremely anel restoration being done on a '72 TA. This thing will be one of the nicest around when finished.
Pages 46 to 49 detail how he did his steering wheel. Perhaps some of his info will help you
